My OperaPost-Reservist thoughts...

Its over. The 2 weeks 1 day In-Camp Training (ICT) is over. What are my thoughts? Well, mixed I guess.
I didn't get a chance to write in on my 2nd weekend out coz I was probably too beat and also spending precious time with my baby. It was a short 2nd weekend out though, booked out Saturday evening and back in Sunday night. This was coz we had our major 4 day 3 night training exercise outfield starting the following day. But now that its over and I need to haul my ass back to work, it just seems surreal. Seems like the 2 weeks 1 day was just a break from the realities of life. Now that I am back, I just can't seem to adapt back. Making it even harder is the absence of the love of my life, as she is now away in a faraway land for work. Oh well, thats life I guess. Just when you think it can't get any worse, it does.
As expected, the oddly natural but unwanted phenomenon of "inbox explosion" has occured while I was away. Finding 200 emails in your work inbox isn't exactly the kinda welcome you want when coming back home. But oh well, lets face it, its gonna happen whether we like it or not. Just like many things in life. I've come to accept it, and take things a step at a time (or at least I have tried accepting it..)
Here I am sitting in front of my lappie writing this blog entry is a testiment to the degree of sianness and boredom I am facing right now. Its beyond words, its beyond imagination.
But just as how time waits for no man, we just need to boldly pull ourselves back up from this well of sianzzzz and get on with life, before life gets on without us.
And finally to baby, the love of my life, whereever you go and whatever you do, remember I will always love you. Happy 1 yr 4 mths sweetheart.
